Maintenance Engineer – Shift (Days & Nights)
This business has been part of almost every household for years. Which means you’re not walking into some shaky start-up — you’re joining a stable, progressive FMCG giant that’s big on quality, investment, and actually looking after its people.
Your job? Keep production moving, downtime low, and standards high. You’ll be knee-deep in automation, electrical and mechanical troubleshooting — and just as importantly, you’ll be spotting improvements that actually make a difference instead of filling out a suggestion form that disappears into a drawer.
What you’ll be doing:
- Fault-finding and fixing electrical, mechanical, and automation issues mid-shift. 
- Proactive and reactive maintenance (because “wait and see” is how things break). 
- Driving improvement projects to boost plant performance. 
- Supporting OEE, cutting downtime, and keeping the place safe. 
- Coaching operators and junior engineers so they don’t break things in the first place. 
- Building a culture of pride, performance, and continuous improvement. 
What you’ll need:
- Time-served apprenticeship with an electrical bias. 
- Calm under pressure and good at explaining things without sounding like a textbook. 
- Comfortable coaching others and being the technical go-to. 
- Solutions-focused and not afraid to challenge “we’ve always done it this way.” 
What’s in it for you:
- Company pension scheme with up to 10% employer contribution. 
- Life assurance. 
- Wellbeing support — including counselling and financial advice. 
- Salary finance and cycle-to-work schemes. 
- Retail discounts with hundreds of outlets. 
- Full induction and ongoing training. 
If you want a role where you’re trusted to solve problems, supported to improve, and part of a team that gets things done
